    Highly recommend The View and would happily stay again!

    The views of Table Mountain and the city are amazing. The location is super close and convenient being only minutes away from attractions such as the Table Mountain cable car, V&A waterfront, Camps Bay Beach, and highway access to surrounding tourist attractions like Cape Point and Wine farms. The unit itself is private, quiet, spacious, comfortable, modern, clean and includes luxuries to complement its beautiful outside surroundings. There is a good little convenience/grocery store just 200m away - an easy stroll for basic necessities.

    Some hand towels in the bathrooms would be nice.

    Most amazing apartment with pinch-me views of Table Mountain. So comfortable and chic, had everything we needed. We absolutely loved it. When can I move in?!

    This is the perfect apartment, ideally located in one of the best neighborhoods of the most beautiful city in the world. The views from the rooftop level, the living room and the bedrooms are amazing, the comfort is next level and Wendy is a great host, always responsive and supportive! The apartment is also completely safe and the perfect starting point for all the activities in and around the city. Thank you so much for this amazing stay!

    It will be better if cleaning services are available.

    The penthouses was wonderful, clean with everything we needed, modern and comfortable and in an great location. The host Wendy was friendly and helpful and enabled us to have an early check in which was greatly appreciated. There is also a supermarket (OK ) very close the apartment which was handy for snacks and drinks which we were able to keep in the fridge in the apartment. I'd highly recommend this apartment and will definitely book it again if we visit Cape Twon in the future.

    Beautiful apartment with an incredible view of Cape Town's local mountain! The location is also great and you are within a few minutes by car or cab to the harbor or the other sights. Key handover is easy via the keybox so you don't have to be there at time xy. Everything was perfect and we will definitely return if we are ever in Cape Town again!
